Schiff looks paranoid...just like he does here: twitter.com...
Mr. Taylor's long-windedness notwithstanding, he was clear on some things today, mostly that he knows nothing about this first-hand, only that he was told by so and so that was told by someone else that Trump screwed the pooch, and that he didn't know what was actually said on the phone call. But wait, Mr. Taylor said himself that from meetings he attended with Zelensky, there was ZERO pressure by Trump, no QPQ ever. Boom! Gosh, I almost feel bad for you guys. Almost.
I heard something today that makes a lot of sense. The aid was approved last winter. Zelensky was elected in the spring. He's a newcomer so the administration may have put the aid on hold to see if he was actually a good guy and not another corrupt official like Ukraine had just gotten rid of. So not allowing the distribution of the money until they figured out if the new guy is ok or not makes total sense. That the Ukraine needed the money before they got it means NOTHING, they did get it in September AND they didn't know, from their own admission, that it had been withheld.
There are individuals testifying that listened to the Trump-Zelensky call first hand
individuals who were aware of the Guiliani/Trump desires to have Ukraine investigate
Why shouldn’t these witnesses to the context of the request for a Biden investigation give testimony to what they saw and heard?

I have no problem with them being heard. I listened. I am questioning on why they did not call out their alarm earlier before the phone call took place. Mostly, they seem to have issue with Rudy's involvement.
As far as the witnesses hearsay opinions would be like you telling me that a real life leprechaun gave your friend his treasure of gold. I then share that with another as a fact and they ask me did I see the gold? Um...no. Did I even find and ask to see the gold for myself? No. I just assumed you would have and you would not deceive me. Your friend had a dream he was sharing, somewhere that bit was left out.
See?
